Chapter 77 Return
When Li Jing returned to the temple, it was already approaching evening. The burning bonfire revealed a little light from the temple door, and the warm atmosphere slowly spread out.

The tall figure of the empress stood quietly at the bottom of the steps with her hands behind her back. When she saw Li Jing coming back, she looked over with her beautiful eyes.

"What's the matter?"

Li Jing picked up the fallen leaves on the empress' shoulders with a smile on her face.

"Talking about brotherly feelings."

Seeing the empress frowning again, Li Jing laughed, hugged her shoulders and walked inside.

"Their master was poisoned by poison and wanted to borrow the golden silkworm Gu to detoxify him, so he came here specially."

The empress tilted her head: "Why didn't you tell me before..."

"Who knows, but I suspect it's the evil handsome man who is responsible... and it may have something to do with the poisonous man."

The two walked into the temple gate. Li Jing let go of the empress's hand on her shoulder and looked curiously at the busy trio inside.

"What are you doing?"

King Hui put a small snake into Chi Meng's small shoulder pocket, muttering something.

"When you go to the Central Plains, although Alang protects you. But there are many capable people there, and you are a trouble-loving master, so you should try to protect yourself. This little snake has been raised by my mother for a long time, and it will be easy for ordinary people to touch it. Damn it, remember how you controlled it..."

Xian Ginseng was directing from the side.

"And that centipede, scorpion. I raised a lot of them, and I brought them to the girl."

Chi Meng puffed up his face and waved his hands to refuse.

"Don't be silly, you don't look good!"

Li Jing was speechless, and then stepped forward with the empress, dumbfounded.

"Uncle and aunt, Chi Meng didn't follow us to the battlefield, so it wouldn't be so difficult and dangerous?"

When Li Jing came back, his eyes lit up and he waved.

"You came back just in time. This is a miracle medicine from our Miao territory. You can give it to Chi Meng and Miss Li in the future so that they can give birth to two fat boys as soon as possible."

When she saw what looked like insect eggs taken out from the fresh ginseng, the empress had black lines all over her head.

Li Jing laughed loudly and took the things from Xian Ginseng's hands in a decent manner.

"Junior, thank you, aunt."

Feeling a sharp pain in her back, Li Jing straightened her back and coughed: "But..."

The King of Snakes frowned and snatched the words away, scolding Xian Ginseng.

"Alang is a medical student, so he still needs this thing from you? Don't cause problems to the girl's body with this thing like yours."

Seeing King Hui reaching out to take the insect egg, Li Jing rubbed his head: "There is no rush for this kind of thing, Chi Meng is still young..."

Xian Shen glared at the King of Snakes fiercely, slapped him on the head, turned around and prepared to tinker with something to hand over to Chi Meng.

King Jiao touched the top of his head and looked at Li Jing with a wry smile.

"Kui Mu came to look for me in the afternoon and said that the Jaundice clan members who will follow you, A Lang, have been selected and will set off with you tomorrow."

Li Jing nodded, pulled the empress to sit down on the wooden low stool made by the king of snakes, and smiled and glanced at Chi Meng, who was still fighting with the fresh ginseng over there.

"I'm going to the Central Plains now, and it will be a long time before I return to Miaojiang next time. What else do you want to order?"

King Jiao also sat down together and glanced at the two of them hesitantly before speaking hesitantly.

"The Central Plains is in chaos. I've heard about it all these years even if I stayed in Miaojiang before I was born. If A Lang and Miss Li encounter a place in the Central Plains that requires me to contribute, they can let someone come and let me know..."

"Although Chi Li has been under house arrest for some time in the past two years, the title of King Hui can still draw some strength in Miaojiang. Don't be polite to me about this kind of thing."

Li Jing's face straightened up, and just when he was about to stand up and bow properly, the back of his hand was patted by the smiling Snake King.

"You have helped us too much, not to mention that you and I are also a family now... Well, let's treat it as a girl's dowry."

Li Jing smiled softly and felt warm in his heart as he saw the swaying firelight reflected on King Jiao's face.

King Hui stroked his beard on his chin, and raised his hand to stop Li Jing's unspoken thanks, the smile on his face slowly disappeared, full of seriousness.

Seeing his expression, Li Jing also straightened up and heard the King of Snakes whisper seriously.

"Alang, I also know a little bit about your identity. You are indeed honorable. But you are not handsome, you are not invincible. Unless you can't avoid it, don't be your enemy...he..."

King Jiao didn't finish his words for a long time. After a long time, he turned into a sigh.

"But no matter what, I will fully support you. It's for the girls, and it's also for you."

Li Jing got up seriously, and bowed with crossed hands.

"Jing, thank you dad."

In the temple illuminated by the swaying fire, Xian Shen turned his head in surprise and looked over.

With a warm smile, King Jiao calmly accepted Li Jing's bow.

Chi Meng, who was inexplicably nervous next to her, could only see the faint smile on the empress's face.

Little pot pot, little sister.There is also the corpse ancestor lying on the tree outside.

It's great to meet you.

…………

The crowing of roosters evokes the dawn, and the thin mist disperses, revealing the covered gravel path.

The stream flows gurglingly, driving the wooden waterwheel on it to slowly rotate, causing the water on the aqueduct to flow into the farmland beside it.

A tall and handsome black horse swung its tail and put its head to the edge of the stream. It snorted when it was awake and began to drink water.

Behind it, a child in Miao costume is holding another white sacred horse, looking at the black horse.

"Xiaobai, where are you going to play today? Yesterday, my grandpa said that you have gained some weight and asked you to run more."

Hearing the child's words, the white horse beside him raised its head in a humane manner, showing off its graceful curves.

The black horse Xiaobai raised his head, looked towards the south of the village with doubtful eyes, and snorted.

"Are you going to the south? But you can't go far. Grandpa said it's not safe there. There are man-eating monsters..."

Before the Miao child finished speaking, Xiaobai suddenly neighed, spread his hooves and wanted to run south.

"Eh?"

Hearing the exclamation of the Miaojiang kid, Xiaobai seemed to have just reacted, ran over and put his head on his back, and led him and the white horse to the south.

"What happened to you today? Don't get into trouble. Last time I kicked Aunt Zhang's chicken to death, but I got scolded by my grandpa."

Listening to the child's murmur, Xiaobai just lowered his body and let him ride on his horse.Caihe suddenly jumped up and started running towards the south of the stockade.

…………

"Holy girl, you guys..."

I haven’t seen him in three months. The old man in this Miao village seemed to be a little older. He was holding a wooden stick and greeted Li Jing at the intersection where he and others had left.

"Grandfather, these are the friends of the Jaundice clan who are planning to go back to the Central Plains with us, let the people in the village not be afraid."

Chi Meng was pulled off the horse by Li Jing and gave a brief introduction to the old Miao Jiang man before bending his eyes and shaking the "poison" domino in his hand.

"And dad is safe now!"

When the old man Miao Jiang heard that the dozens of knights wearing bamboo hats and black clothes were from the Jian tribe, he was secretly shocked. Then when he heard Chi Meng's next words, his slightly rickety back immediately straightened, and he said in surprise.

"Has King Jiao really been rescued?!"

Chi Meng chuckled and poked the smiling Li Jing with his hand.

"Dad is now in the Dead Creek Forest. For some reason, Poison King Ba can't get rid of him for the time being, but he will definitely not poison the Miaojiang people like before!"

The old Miao Jiang man had only a look of joy on his face, and the young Miao Jiang people behind him who were originally afraid of those mysterious Jaundice tribesmen also became happy at the same time.

The scene was once very cheerful.

The sound of rapid horse hooves suddenly sounded behind everyone, gradually becoming clearer from a distance to nearer.

Li Jing looked up in surprise and saw two handsome horse figures suddenly flashing out from the corner of the bamboo house in the village.

A high-pitched neighing sound suddenly started.

Little White's front hooves were raised as he galloped forward, and the child on his back hugged the horse's neck tightly in fear.

One black and one white, two divine horses appeared in everyone's sight.

The empress also bent her eyes at the same time, looking at Li Jing's surprised profile in amusement.

"Xiwazi? How did you know that the saint and the others were back?"

Li Jing pointed at Xiaobai who looked like he was asking for credit, and laughed and cursed.

"What a dog nose."

Everyone had already seen that the teams coming from the south were all headed by Li Jing. When he said this, they laughed and invited everyone to join the camp.

The hospitable young people from Miaojiang went to lead the pony of the Jaundice tribe, but let everyone enter the village to eat meat.

The two women walked beside Li Jing and were surrounded by the crowd as they walked into the village. They were greeted by Miao people who heard the noise.

The lively scene is like the New Year.

Hou Qing, who was sitting on a tree in the distance, shook his head and played softly on a bone flute.

The laughter of worldly people only made him feel noisy.

In the woods around him, countless figures wearing bamboo hats and black clothes flashed past.

Only the tall, thin, one-armed man in the lead looked back to the south, and then disappeared into the jungle heading north without hesitation.
